Customer Reviews Vans Classic Slip-On Checkerboard

I love it - I love my new Vans. They arrived in no time; it was really fast and the comfort is really good. I walk in them a lot and I don’t complain about my feet!

I love these shoes! I really don't even have to match them well; they always look great and casual. I'm a mom with a one year old and I can put on my shoes while holding my child, which is a definite plus!

Best, simple, and stylish! Any pair of the Van's Classic Slip-on's are great. They offer many styles, they feel comfortable, they're simple, stylish, and an overall great shoe!

Vans are the best shoes ever. So I have 3 pairs of vans now and they are sooooo comfortable. They do stretch out a lot tho, so for this pair I got smart and ordered a half size smaller than I usually do.

Pretty good - So I got two pairs of these shoes. One in just the classic charcoal gray and the other in the black blue/yellow plaid pattern. I’m returning the grey ones because they're too plain but the plaid ones are really, really cute. The problem with Vans are the stretchy part of the shoe which expands so your foot can go in is extremely small and you have to break into the shoes because their canvas and plastic. After you break into the shoes they will be really comfortable, but for the next month or so they are going to be really stiff. Just like how Chuck Taylors are when you first get them.

Vans- Checkered Goodness - I really enjoy my Vans. They are stylish, comfy, and quite easy to put on. Yay Vans!

Satisfied - The ordering process was simple. The shoes came in a reasonable amount of time. My daughter was satisfied with her shoes and my nephew is getting some now too.

For race fans - Living in Indy we are always looking for black and white checks to wear to the 500. This shoe serves that purpose. It is comfortable and fun. My husband did have to go to a size larger than he would normally wear. We love the shoe and we love Zappos.com.

Really satisfied - I bought my son a pair of these from Zappos. They came in just 2 days! He was so happy with them. They actually are nicer looking than the picture shows. It’s hard to find that color in the stores around here.

Great shoe! I ordered this for my teenage son, who was looking for a camo colored shoe. It fits great, easy to slip on and off, and is sturdier than the other slip-on shoes he's had before. He's a happy camper now!

Comfy - I purchased these slip ons for my 15 year old granddaughter. She told me they are "very comfortable" and all her friends love them.

Vans - Ordered a pair of Vans for my son. Came quickly, liked no extra charges. Great order.

I got a coffee/walnut suede classic slip on vans shoe. They look very good and they are very comfortable although I do have a few problems with them... Because they are suede and they do not have any holes in them, your feet will get sweaty. Another thing, is that the stitching and elastic for my shoes were white which did not match the overall look of the shoe. I had to colore them black which made it look much better.

New Shoes! I took the advice of the previous reviews and ordered my vans 1/2 size smaller than i usually wear. They are a little on the snug side so I should have ordered them in my original size. Im hoping that they stretch out a little bit. They arent small enough to exchange so I am keeping them. I really recommend ordering them in your correct shoe size. Other then that...cutest shoes ever! I bought the coffee/pink icing dots pair and i love them to death. I cant wait until its warmer outside to wear them more frequently!

Happy Niece - I purchased these shoes for my Niece for her birthday. I ordered the wrong size. Got an immediate refund (w/ free shipping). Couldn't get the correct size in her style, so close to Christmas. Zappos's suggested an email when the size and style came in. I now have a very happy Niece. Thanks Zappo's

Not bad - I bought the white/charcoal checkered ones because I like the way they look. The sizing was a little weird, though, at least for me. I usually wear a 13 or 14, depending on the brand. These, though, I tried on a 13 in a store, and they were too loose. I then came to Zappos to get the color I wanted, and ordered them in a 12. When they arrived I found that they were perfect around the ankle, where the 13s were too loose, but they were short and squeezed my toes. Thankfully after wearing them for a while the sole gets depressed and makes for a little more toe room. Basically, these shoes run looser around the ankles than I'd have expected. I'd say try some on in a store somewhere before ordering. Though really, with Zappos' awesome return policy and fast shipping, it wouldn't be a big deal to just order some and then return them if they don't fit.

Slip-On Guide - Great shoes! Easy on/off, very easily cleaned. Vans Classics (Slip-Ons/Era/Authentic/Old Skool/Sk8-Hi and PrisonIssue23) traditionally run 1/2 size LARGE. Order 1/2 size smaller than your true-to-size shoe size (i.e. if you wear a 9, buy an 8.5). Most Slip-On's are made of canvas, which will stretch slightly as the shoe is worn/formed to your feet. The suede and tweed/canvas style will stretch slightly as well - whereas the full leather version is a bit more "stiff." LASTLY - if you choose to NOT WEAR SOCKS with your slip-on's, then you may even want to buy a full size smaller than true size. If you wear socks with nearly all your shoes, then why would you buy the SAME SIZE for a shoe you wouldn't wear socks with? GREAT PRODUCT! AMAZING COLOR SELECTIONS/STYLES!

Great - Vans are great shoes and they are so adorable and original. They are priced great on Zappos!

Vans Are Great - I bought these for a trip and found them to be especially comfortable. At the airport they come on and off with ease when you have to go through security checks. Very fashionable and easy to wear, plus they look cool. Thumbs Up.

Cool shoes - These shoes look unique, and great! I've gotten compliments already. However, they feel about a half a size larger than marked. Other than that, they feel quite alright. They are more comfortable as you wear them more often.

"Got my vans on but they look like sneakers!" I wanted these shoes for Christmas and it was one of the things I got. I love these sneakers. Going to an all girl school its hard to stand out style wise but these helped. I got compliments on them all day. I dont find any shoe flattering on my size 11 foot but these weren't something to complain about. As for the support of the arch, woah its something you definally have to get used to! It was as if I was walking on the ground in these. All in all great shoe and I love how Zappos keeps me happy!!

Cute shoe. This is my first pair of Vans and I'm pleased. I love the variety of colors and patterns. Vans run big. I wear a 7 in women's and ordered a 6 1/2 so I could wear them sockless. I still have extra toe room and I haven't broken them in yet. For me they are a full size down without socks, 1/2 size down with socks. These get dirty very easily but you can throw them in the washer no problem.

Good - Overall, I'm very happy with this product.

Great Weekend Shoe - I wanted a shoe that I could wear on the weekends that was fun and comfortable. Vans really fit the bill. I tried Converse but found that there was not enough cushioning or arch support. The Vans provided both at a very reasonable price. I have purchased three pairs in different colors. Thanks Zappos for having all the Vans styles and sizes. I will keep coming back because of your great service.
